Janet Joslin
I grew up in Marin County, California, and have been living on the Mendocino Coast for the last three years. I have had my own textile business for 15 years. I have a "rep" who sells my kimonos around the country to most of the top wearable art/craft shops. I am also an artist, painting oils and watercolors of flowers and landscapes. My paintings are sold exclusively through 'Connexions Gallery' in Sausalito, California. I have a website for my paintings at http://www.janetjoslin.com
I consider myself a creative person in everything I do in life, and I love to try new ways of expressing myself.
Working with silk fabric is wonderful because of the depth of color and light that can be achieved. There is always a new way to work with dyes to get different results. Right now I am creating some new kimonos, combining shibori techniques that I already use, piecing them together along with solid color. All my pieces are one-of-a-kind and sell retail from $395 to $1000.
I have always purchased my dyes from Dharma Trading Co. I started out using the French Dupont dyes, but as my business grew, I switched to Procion H Dyes, allowing me to mix my own colors. I found this to be more cost effective.
